| Elephant Ride at Anchor Wat |
Our team had a Wonderful time visiting Siem Reap and Ankor Wat Temples! We did so many new ,fascinating things, I'll have to spread them out over several postings.
When we came back on Sunday, we had a much better perspective on Cambodian daily life, history and culture and we even did some tourist activities too! One of my favorite things was the Elephant Ride into the park as we traveled to the first temple in the Ankor Wat complex. It was a great way to start out the visit to the magnificent area.

I picked out just a few of the pictures I took to show you some highlights! I'm looking forward to visiting the area again in April when David comes back to join me for vacation- there is still so much to see and learn about the temples.
More tomorrow about the trip to the Silk Farm, the boat ride to the floating village, and the "interesting" snack food!
Bye for now,

Mary,
ReplyDeleteWhat neat adventures! To actually go to Angkor Wat riding on an elephant! The traffic sounds like something out of a nightmare, although I suppose in its chaos, nothing moved very fast.
On the home front, the house showings have been going pretty well. There have been about 5 showings and an open house. One of the families came back for a second round - and at this point we are on their short list. They asked for information on the cost of the electricity and whether there was a gas connection in the house so not too promising, but at least they had a second showing. One of the couples from the open house came back with their realtor to see the house. I ran into them as I was coming home and answered a couple questions, why the second water heater and where was the second cat (from a really cute little 4 year old). They have two cats. I have not heard anything from them as yet, but the second visit was Sunday night.
Anyway a lot more interest than last time around!

Hi Mom,
ReplyDeleteThis looks like tons of fun, I can't wait to see more pictures! It sounds like you're really getting your feet under you as well and hopefully your deeper cultural understanding will translate into better communications with the client too. I'll try to sign onto google the next few afternoon/evenings so maybe we can get a chat going. Keep having a great time on your amazing adventure!
Love,
Krista
